State-of-the-art seismological techniques applied to Apollo-era data suggest our moon has a core similar to Earth’s. Uncovering details about the lunar core is critical for developing accurate models ...

Ocean bottom seismometers (OBS) are specialised instruments deployed on the seafloor to record ground motion from natural and induced seismic sources. Acquisition begins with precise instrument design ...

NASA’s InSight lander has deployed its first instrument onto the surface of Mars, completing a major mission milestone. New images from the lander show the seismometer on the ground, its ...

A new look at decades-old data from the Apollo missions has uncovered evidence of tens of thousands of previously unrecognized moonquakes. The results could reveal details about the moon’s inner ...

Geophysics has shown that precise measurements and a little modeling can perform wonders, like showing us the detailed structure of the Earth’s interior despite the fact that it is inaccessibly buried ...

Google is creating a worldwide, Android phone-powered earthquake alert system. The first part of that system is rolling out today. If you opt in, the accelerometer in your Android phone will become ...

Scientists show that an ocean-bottom seismometer deployed close to the calving front of a glacier in Greenland can detect continuous seismic radiation from a glacier sliding, reminiscent of a slow ...

If you live far from the regions affected by Hurricane Dorian, you might understandably be unable to comprehend the fear that nucleates and grows within the minds of the people in its path. That’s why ...

DEL RIO – The state of Texas wants to stick a seismometer on Terry Hill's ranch, right next to his deer blind. Hill, a fourth generation Texan born and raised in this Rio Grande outpost, understands ...
